Releases: kwilteam/kwil-db
v0.8.4
This release of Kwil DB contains a fix to snapshot creation that could occur for records larger than 64kB, and a fix for a SQL parser bug that would prevent in-line expressions from being comparable (e.g. $1 is null
without an explicit typecast).
The parse/v0.2.4
tag for the parse
module accompanies this Kwil DB release.
What's Changed
- Fix a snapshot creation error with
bufio.Scanner
exceeding its line scan limit. This affected bothkwil-admin
, and the background statesync functionality inkwild
. (b3460a7) - Fix: in-line type assertions not being comparable. Actions using in-line statements with type casts for ambiguous types would not generate SQL properly. This would only occur when performing an expression (such as a comparison). Also fix a stack overflow when using the parse debugger tool via
kwil-cli
. (faf879e) - Prepare v0.8.4 (

v0.8.1
Kwil DB v0.8.1
This is a major new release of Kwil DB.
The highlights are:
- A new Kuneiform element called "procedures" that uses a procedural language for building logic into schemas.
- Added a JSON-RPC server.
- Network migration support.
- Enable state sync mode and snapshot creation.
- Absorb the
kuneiform
and dependent repositories into theparse
module in thekwil-db
repository.
Note that v0.8.0 was not published due to issues with the upgrade procedures.
Important Upgrading Notes
Upgrading to this release requires a network migration. See the network migration documents for instructions on how to perform a network migration. Only upgrading from v0.7 is supported.
In certain cases, deployed schemas may not be compatible with v0.8. See UPGRADING.md for details.
Notable Changes
Procedures
In previous releases, SQL queries were specified entirely within Kuneiform "actions". This release introduces the concept of "procedures", which use a basic procedural language for building logic into schemas. Procedures can be used for building access control logic, performing arithmetic, and managing control flow.
Procedures are declared using the procedure
keyword. A procedure may return
either a single record (a tuple) or a table
.
A procedure body may contain variable declarations, basic arithmetic operations, calls to various built-in functions, control flow (e.g. if
/then
/for
), and SQL queries.
See the procedure docs for more information.
Variable Types
Procedures are strongly typed. The parameters, returns, and variables declared within a procedure must be assigned a type. The recognized types are:
int
is a 64-bit signed integertext
is a variable length character array (a string)bool
is a boolean (true or false)blob
is a byte arrayuint256
is a 256-bit unsigned integerdecimal
is a fixed precision type baseduuid
is 128-bit universally unique identifier (UUID)
Arrays of any of the above types are also permitted.
Legacy actions only support int
and text
in table declarations, and use no types in their signatures or bodies.
Foreign Procedure Calls
It is now possible to interact with procedures in a different database using foreign
procedure declarations. For instance, to use a procedure called target_procedure
in the database 'x_target_dbid'
, declare a foreign procedure in your database and specify the target database and procedure name when calling:
foreign procedure get_user($id uuid) returns (text, int)
procedure call_get_user($id uuid) public {
$username, $age = get_user['x_target_dbid', 'target_procedure']($id);
// $username is a text and $age is an int
}
JSON-RPC Server and gRPC Gateway Deprecation
This release of kwild
adds a JSON-RPC server. It listens on TCP port 8484 of all network interfaces by default. JSON-RPC requests are handled by the /rpc/v1
path.
The CLI utilities, the Go SDK client, and the JS SDK now use the JSON-RPC server by default. RPC providers should expose TCP port 8484, and client configuration should be updated to use port 8484.
The HTTP API, which is a REST gateway for the gRPC server, is now deprecated, although it listens on all network interfaces on port 8080 by default. The gRPC server, which was previously deprecated, now listens only on a loopback address to support the internal HTTP gateway (Swagger). The gRPC and the HTTP gateway will be removed in the next release.
The OpenRPC specification document for the "user" RPC service may be found in the source code repository. The server itself will also provide the server's active service specification at the /spec/v1
HTTP endpoint and in the response to the rpc.discover
JSON-RPC methods.
The "params"
value in all requests are named rather than positional. This means that the JSON-RPC 1.0 calling convention with an array []
for the parameters is not supported, only the JSON-RPC convention using an object {}
. However, this is a detail that the Kwil clients hide from users. Only if doing manual HTTP POST requests, such as with curl
or Postman, is this important.
The "admin" service and the kwil-admin
tool are also updated to use JSON-RPC.
SQL Syntax
- Support for more built-in functions. See Supported Functions.
- Conflicting column names in the returned values from a query are disallowed.
For example, this means that it is now an error if aSELECT *
is used with a
JOIN
between tables with an identical column name. - There is now a requirement that at least one side of a
JOIN
must be a
table's column. It is an error to have literal or computed values on both sides. (Q: does every joined column need to be just a column, or all joined columns. What about joining on a function of a column?)
Snapshots and State Sync
State sync is a feature that allows a new node to bootstrap directly from a snapshot of the blockchain state instead of replaying all the blocks from the genesis. This reduces the time needed to sync a new node to a network. However, the node will only be aware of transactions after the snapshot height.
kwild
may now be configured to periodically generate state snapshots, which are provided to nodes that are joining the network. The app.snapshots
config section adjust this functionality.
To enable the use of state sync on a new node, trusted snapshot providers must be configured. The chain.statesync
config section adjust this functionality.
State sync is only used for a new node. Catch up after a previously-running node has restarted uses the standard "block sync" technique, which fully validates and executes all blockchain transactions to rebuild state.
See the State Sync docs for details.
Network Migrations
To launch a new network with an initial genesis state, special state snapshots may be generated using the kwil-admin snapshot create
command.
When launching a network from this genesis state, the app_hash
field of the new genesis.json file will be non-null
. The initial validator nodes must use the genesis_state
config.toml setting to specify the snapshot that corresponds to the app_hash
value. Once a trusted snapshot provider has generated an initial snapshot for the new running network, other nodes may rely on the state sync mechanism to join the network without having to manually distribute the genesis_state
file.
See Network Migration documents for details.
Coordinated Upgrades
This release includes an experimental system for specifying planned changes to code that affects consensus. This is an presently experimental system that is being evaluated to help avoid the need for network migrations when important fixes and updates might otherwise break consensus. The the documentation for details.
Command Line Application Changes
User CLI (kwil-cli
) Changes
Moved kwil-cli
Configuration Folder
The default config folder for kwil-cli
is now called kwil-cli
in the user's home directory. It was previously called kwil_cli
.
New RPC Provider Setting
Within config.json
, the RPC provider is specified with a "provider"
field. This was previously called "grpc_url"
.
The --kwil-provider
command line flag is DEPRECATED and will be removed in the subsequent release. Use the --provider
flag instead.
When updating for the new provider
setting, ensure it corresponds to the JSON-RPC server at port 8484 instead of the REST API at port 8080. Otherwise, ensure that the chosen RPC provider is updated to direct to the JSON-RPC server.
Command Changes
The result from the utils query-tx
command no longer includes the transaction details for an unconfirmed transaction. Confirmed transactions will still include the decoded transaction. A new --raw
flag may be provided with this command to retrieve the serialized transaction data given a transaction hash.
Added the utils parse
command to parse a Kuneiform file and output the schema as JSON.
Added the utils decode-tx
command to decode a serialized transaction provided as a base64 string.
Many of the fields in the JSON objects returned by query-tx
and other commands with the --output json
option are renamed with consistent snake case formatting. See the See UPGRADING.md for details on changes to the core
module types and their JSON tags.
The account balance
command may now be given a --pending
flag to return account information that includes changes that consider any unconfirmed transactions. This is useful for determining the next nonce for an account when broadcasting multiple transaction per block.
Node Application (kwild
) Changes
The default setting for the admin service (admin_listen_addr
) is now "/tmp/kwild.socket"
.
The jsonrpc_listen_addr
setting replaces the grpc_listen_addr
setting. The default value for jsonrpc_listen_addr
is 0.0.0.0:8484
(listen on port 8484 on all network interfaces).
In addition to standard output, kwild
also writes the log to "kwild.log"
in the application's root directory by default. The output_paths
setting is used to change this.
Two new timeouts are added:
rpc_timeout
sets a timeout on requests on the user R...
v0.7.6
What's Changed
- kwild,rpc: db and rpc timeout settings (235a1f1). This introduces two timeout settings:
rpc_timeout
anddb_read_timeout
. The DB timeout applies to DB read operations in theCall
andQuery
service methods. The RPC timeout applies to all RPCs, and includes the entire request-response roundtrip. - pg: always release conn on commit/rollback error (5824d29). This resolves a potential leak of DB reader connections, and a shutdown hang.
Full Changelog: v0.7.5...v0.7.6
There are no changes to the core
or parse
modules.
Build
This release is built with Go 1.22.3

Full Changelog: v0.7.1...v0.7.2
v0.6.7
What's Changed
- added read timeouts for registry SQL queries (e5216ad).
- core/rpc/client/user/http: read and interpret error messages (47ccd8b). Add uniform error parsing to each of the http client methods. The server doesn't emit "unknown" status codes resulting in http responses with 500 status codes.
- core: fix parse kgw error, so it output detailed message (83d4844). Correctly parse common kgw errors, so it outputs detailed a message.
- bump version string to v0.6.7 (ad4a4eb).

from the base URL, preventing confusing 404 not found errors from kwil-cli. - gatewayclient: fix domain compare when match cookie (0bbb562). Prevent re-prompting for authentication because of incorrect cookie matching based on a domain string that included port.
Full Changelog: v0.6.6...v0.6.7
v0.7.1
What's Changed
- abci,kwild: write in-memory cometbft confs to disk for inspect (69adf12). The
cometbft
command line application'sinspect
androllback
commands are supported on the "abci" subfolder ofkwild
's root directory, while the node is stopped. A rollback will require recreating the entire PostgreSQL database to replace all blocks. - engine: create a max procedure call stack depth (b74380e). Limit action recursion depth.
- sql,pg,engine: rework sql interfaces (6ef9117). This internal change does not affect users or node operation.
- abci,txapp,kwild: new chain meta store (5dc2d6b, ff06172). Migrate the applications metadata store, which contains current best block, into the PostgreSQL tables with the other application data. This prevents a number of deployment gotchas.
- server,pg: fix shutdown sequence (8326adf). This makes shutdown more robust, preventing a possible apphash computation error for a block being finalized during shutdown.
